I have a 1986 tollycraft with 2 1997 fuel injected 454 engines.When i was getting it ready from being stored for the winter i changed the cap, rotor and wires on both. When doing the wires, one by one on the starbourd engine 2 of the wires got loose and I think the were crossed,. on the intake manifold i read the firing orders as 1 8 4 3 6 5 7 2 . The manifold also has the plug numbers stamped on it too. So i traced all the wires to the plugs. Everything looks good. No start. I removed the primary fuel filter and it looked great.still no start. The engine turns over good. The motors ran fine when she was put away for the winter. As i said the port engine runs fine, so I think the fuel is ok and I see a direct line to the this engine to the fuel tank with the shut off in the open position.What next?
